Description
Riveting stories from the Fraser Valley early days told in a "can't put it down" book by Don Waite. The murder of a chief fur trader and the punitive vengeance wreaked by the company launches this can't-put-it-down book of riveting stories. Historian Don Waite also puts on his hiking boots and explores the lost mine of Pitt Lake with the man who claims to have discovered its legendary wealth. He also recounts the exploits of Canada's first train robber, Bill Miner, and the Mountie who brought him in.
